Description
In a nutshell:
A fresh and fruity red wine blend, with flavours of black cherry and bramble fruit from New Hall Wine Estate in Essex.
The lowdown:
The history of vineyards in Essex go back to the Middle Ages, although New Hall Wine Estate was established in 1969, which makes it one of the oldest commercial vineyards in the UK. The estate has an impressive 49 hectares under vine and one of the largest plantings of Bacchus in the UK. The vines are planted on sheltered southern facing slopes in the Crouch Valley, and mainly London clay soils, with chalk concealed below the clay deposits. The blend for this wine includes grape varieties which thrive in English terroir: Precoce, Rondo, Regent, Acolon and Zweigelt. The fruit is harvested by hand when it has reached maturity. The grapes underwent a cool, steady fermentation in stainless steel tanks with carefully selected yeast strains. This wine is full of black cherry and bramble fruit with a hint of red cherry and almond. It displays juicy dark fruits, tomato leaf and a smokey peppery character leading to a firm and well-structured finish.
When to drink:
Would pair well with vegetable dishes or game and poultry dominated meals.
